You're almost correct... it's cost, not money. (out, not in)

The cost involved in having an event at a major historic venue has become prohibitive for singular events.

Look at some of the costs per attendee at other 2012 events.

SAAC has always tried to minimize the attendees' costs at any convention.

Default Grand Marshall Parnelli Jones

Latest, and greatest! Just out!

Grand Marshall is Parnelli Jones!

Parnelli's Riverside winning Grand Prix King Cobra will be one of TWO King Cobra's present.

Parnelli's winning King Cobra is owned by Donn Vickory and Parnelli has agreed to drive this beautifully restored King Cobra around the original Pomona Road Course for some exhibition laps.

Talk about a great opportunity to be present and take that memorial photograph, Parnelli Jones, King Cobra, Pomona Road Course=PRICELESS!

So...Parnelli Jones will be the Grand Marshall at the 50th Anniversary Celebration at Pomona and will not be at the Shelby Bash in Las Vegas or at Watkins Glen for the SAAC event, right?

Parnelli Jones, Bob Bondurant, Phil Remington, John Morton, Carroll Shelby,
Don Prudhomme. That will be a great autograph session.

Nobody should be complaining (if they are) about a chance to cruise around Watkins Glen. When a club can make that happen, good for everyone! They announced the Shelby American 50th Anniversary Tour is also going to be at the Glen for the event, which will make it essentially a triple-header.
